The Community of Verdensa is a massive, genial nation, remarkable for its state-planned economy, irreverence towards religion, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic population of 1.112 billion Verdensans are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 66.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but inefficient Verdensan economy, worth 57.2 trillion Nugs a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Furniture Restoration, and Basket Weaving. Average income is 51,461 Nugs, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Airplanes have giant grilles on their noses to knock drones out of their path, the Smalltopian embassy doubles as an electoral campaign headquarters, cosmopolitan citizens ask what their countries can do for them, and sales of disinfectant wipes have skyrocketed. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Verdensa's national animal is the Beaver, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Verdensa is ranked 305,304^th in the world and 651^st in The Leftist Assembly for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring -9.4 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
